AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Piece of crap!!!!
So I reset the air mixture screws, again, as suggested. 1.5 turns out from lightly seated. The bike started and ran good until I dropped it to idle and that's when all hell broke loose.
After restarting it, it idled rough and stalled when I shoved in the choke. So I backed out the screws 1/2 turn. Now the SOB won't start at all. It will catch every so often, just enough to disengage the starter. Yes, all this work has been done with the stock air box and filter. On a whim, I rechecked the timing and it's dead on what the book says it is suppose to be.
As soon as the tank comes back from paint and I have some $$$$$, she's going to Honda. I'm not giving up but I know the limits my mechanical abilities.
Needless to say I am very frustrated with it right now.
